President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky remembered the & nbsp; liberation of Kiev from the & nbsp; Nazis in & nbsp; 1943, accusing the USSR leadership of & nbsp; indifference.
“ We & nbsp; will never & nbsp; forget at what cost 6 & nbsp; November 1943, the capital of Ukraine was liberated from & nbsp; Nazi occupiers. Liberation of Kiev & nbsp; & mdash; this is a story of boundless indifference and & nbsp; cruelty & ldquo; great & rdquo; leaders and & nbsp; boundless feats of great fighters who liberated the city from & nbsp; Nazis & raquo;, & nbsp; & mdash; Zelensky wrote in & nbsp; Telegram.
He & nbsp; noted that, according to & nbsp; official data, the & nbsp; battle for & nbsp; Dnipro indicated 417 thousand dead, and & nbsp; & nbsp; battles for & nbsp; Kiev & nbsp; & mdash; up to & nbsp; 240 thousand. The President noted that & nbsp; among the dead there were many freed citizens mobilized in & nbsp; Ukraine, who fought without & nbsp; uniforms, were not & nbsp; trained and & nbsp; were poorly armed. According to & nbsp; he said, they were & nbsp; sent & nbsp; certain death.
The Ukrainian president stressed that for a real state, human life is of the highest value, while for a “soulless machine” a person is “just fuel” and a resource.
Such a machine may not & nbsp; notice the death of half a million people, Zelensky added. “ She is ready to pay such a terrible price with & nbsp; because & nbsp; there is a whim of the management & nbsp; & mdash; liberate Kiev for the & nbsp; anniversary of the October Revolution & raquo;, & nbsp; & mdash; concluded the President of Ukraine.
In & nbsp; October, the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine (NSDC) proposed to abandon & nbsp; the term “ Great Patriotic War '', replacing it with & nbsp; the terms “ World War II '' and & nbsp; “Soviet-German war.” Now the term “Great Patriotic War” is listed in the dictionary as “Fake/cliché”.
In & nbsp; 2017, the former President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko signed a law prohibiting the production and & nbsp; promotion of St. George ribbons on the territory of the country. He & nbsp; called them & nbsp; a symbol of 'aggression against Ukraine in & nbsp; 2014 & mdash; 2017 & raquo; and & nbsp; not & nbsp; World War II. For & nbsp; violation of the law provides for fines from & nbsp; 850 to & nbsp; UAH 2,550 (2.2 & minus; 6.8 thousand rubles).
Putin said that Crimea and Sevastopol are forever with Russia 
Russian President Vladimir Putin has repeatedly accused foreign countries of & nbsp; attempts to rewrite history. In & nbsp; December 2019, he & nbsp; announced the & nbsp; intention of the European Parliament to distort the historical truth in & nbsp; in connection with & nbsp; the adoption of the resolution on & nbsp; the importance of preserving historical memory for the & nbsp; future of Europe.
The Russian leader was outraged that the & nbsp; resolution & nbsp; “ actually put on the same board and & nbsp; Nazi aggressors, and & nbsp; the Soviet Union, almost & nbsp; does not & nbsp; blame the USSR along with & nbsp; Nazi Germany in & nbsp; unleashing World War II & raquo ;. During the battle & nbsp>
for & nbsp; Dnipro 24 & nbsp; August & nbsp; & mdash; On 23 & nbsp; September 1943, Soviet troops managed to capture several bridgeheads on the & nbsp; territory of Right-Bank Ukraine.
The Kiev offensive operation was carried out from & nbsp; 3 to & nbsp; 13 & nbsp; November 1943, in & nbsp; as a result of which Kiev was liberated (6 & nbsp; November) and & nbsp; Zhytomyr (13 & nbsp; November).
